These definitions we form, of the numerous emotions we feel, love, anger, hatred, happiness, confusion, depression, aggression, ecstacy.. depend on individual experiences. It isn't necessary that two people should share the same meaning of a specific emotion. This is what creates conflict. These definitions are not formed in an instant. It takes multiple experiences to form an idea of what we believe. Those with opposing views only think differently because of their personal encounters.
When you start to understand why you think/feel/believe all that you do, it becomes easier to respect other people and their ideas of life. Isn't it better if everyone takes the opportunity to think differently? Sharing these ideas will only broaden your views. There's no harm in trying a new way to think, is there? We are born with the right to form our own views of the world, in whichever manner we want. The world never has been, is not, and never will be just black and white. Multiple shades of innumerable colors make diversity so beautiful.
Thoughts fuel actions, and imagine if we could achieve peace and harmony by just allowing ourselves to think a little more.. think a litte less even. Although, there is no denying that there's a different sort of beauty altogether when extreme emotions take form. In no sense do I respect or support actions of crime/terrorism, but when I see the passion with which these acts are carried on, I can't help but admire the intensity.
As complexly as our mind functions, the moment you figure out that you can control each thought is when you learn to understand the bigger picture in relation to the smaller bits.
"The closer you are, the lesser you see.."
